Promob offers a set of tools that allow you to quickly and practically clarify any question related to the dimension of items, as well as the distance between them in the design.

With Dimensions, it is possible to mark the points that limit a piece of furniture, a design or a wall, specifying its value in it. The information regarding dimensions and distances between the various items can be of great importance to simplify the work of assembling the design.

Dimension types

The dimensions are available on the print page, and there are six options: Linear, Aligned, Angular, Straight, Continuous and Fast.

• Linear dimension: dimension the distance between two points. To insert it, perform the procedures below:

1. Insert a viewport on the print page.
2. Position the design in the desired view, and in orthogonal mode.
3. Select Viewport and go to Edit Viewport.
4. In Views, select one of the options to view your design.
5. Select Orthogonal / Perspective.
6. In the left sidebar, select the Linear Dimension.
7. Click on the first point, move the mouse and click on the second point that you want to end the dimension.
8. Move the mouse left / right or up / down to position the dimension and click to insert it.

• Aligned dimension: dimension the diagonal distance between two points.

1. Insert a viewport on the print page.
2. Position the design in the desired view, and in orthogonal mode.
3. Select Viewport and go to Edit Viewport.
4. In Views, select one of the options to view your design.
5. Select Orthogonal / Perspective.
6. In the left sidebar, select the Aligned Dimension.
7. Click on the first point, move the mouse and click on the second point that you want to end the dimension.
8. Move the mouse left / right or up / down to position the dimension and click to insert it.

• Angular dimension: dimension an angle.

1. Insert a viewport on the print page.
2. Position the design in the desired view, and in orthogonal mode.
3. Select Viewport and go to Edit Viewport.
4. In Views, select one of the options to view your design.
5. Select Orthogonal / Perspective.
6. In the left sidebar, select the Angular Dimension.

IMPORTANT: the angular dimension requires the indication of at least three points to determine the dimension, since without them it is not possible to identify the points to be dimensioned. Click on the three points and notice that the second point indicates the location of the angle to be dimensioned.

     7. Move the mouse left / right or up / down to position the dimension and click to insert it.

• Dimension Radius: dimension the radius of a circle.

1. Insert a viewport on the print page.
2. Position the design in the desired view, and in orthogonal mode.
3. Select Viewport and go to Edit Viewport.
4. In Views, select one of the options to view your design.
5. Select Orthogonal/Perspective.
6. In the left sidebar, select the Radius dimension.

      IMPORTANT: the radius dimension needs the indication of two points.

    7. Click on the center point of the circle and then on one of the hotpoints available on the arc;
    8. Move the mouse left/right or up/down to position the dimension and click to insert it.

• Quick Dimension: lists several items at the same time.

1. Insert a viewport on the print page.
2. Position the design in the desired view, and in orthogonal mode.
3. Select Viewport and go to Edit Viewport.
4. In Views, select one of the options to view your design.
5. Select Orthogonal / Perspective.
6. In the left sidebar, select Quick Dimension.
7. Through clicks, open a selection window on the objects you want to quote, after dragging vertically or horizontally, according to your need.
8. Click with the mouse to place the dimension.

• Continuous dimension: dimension the distance between several modules at the same time.

1. Insert a viewport on the print page.
2. Position the design in the desired view, and in orthogonal mode.
3. Select Viewport and go to Edit Viewport.
4. In Views, select one of the options to view your design.
5. Select Orthogonal/Perspective.
6. In the left sidebar, select the Continuous Dimension.
7. Click on the points you want to quote. After the last point, click with the right mouse button to finish the dimensioning.
8. With the left mouse button, fix the position of the dimensions. Move the mouse left / right or up / down to position the dimension.
